RATES CLEARANCE CERTIFICATES
MUNAR assists Attorneys to obtain clearance certificates to enable them to transfer properties on behalf of their clients.
From July 2011, the Council will allow for the electronic submission of Rates Clearance Requests and collection of Rates Clearance Certificates. Manual submission will carry an administration cost of R150,00, and electronic submission will carry an administration cost of R50,00.
Where attorneys requested Rates Clearance Certificates electronically, we will assist the attorney to follow the matters up Council and address any query. We will also assist with Section 118 figures.

1. Lodging of the Request for clearance figures.

3. Address queries. (We agree fees to sort out account queries.)
4. Collect the clearance figures and mail it to you.
